Now, bad roads or no, it's all about destination Negril this weekend, for the anniversary celebrations of Couples Swept Away and Couples Negril on Friday and Saturday night, as the two-day day and night affair promises to be a weekend smasheroni! And next weekend it's all about Negril again for the staging of the Mr Caribbean Inter-national Contest, over at the racy Hedonism II Resort, where it promises to be a week of adult fun and games and nothing but! Sadly, this weather and its tragic consequences last week and the threat of even more inclement weather over this weekend have led to the postponement of this weekend's Ocean Style/ESPN celebrity Golf Invitational at the fabulous Half Moon Hotel and Villas.

And the Hogs-a-holics are back from Kansas, where they competed for bragging rights in the American Grill-off, where they earned a respectable top-100 placing out of the near 600 competitors.
